If you're in the market for a used Alembic, The Lowend is pretty fair to deal with. http://www.thelowend.net/thelowend/index.htm If I had the cash I'd go for that Rogue.

On down the list is a 1980 Series I long scale listed for $4,500. effclef Senior Member Username: effclef Post Number: 496 Registered: 1-2004 Posted on Thursday, July 19, 2007 - 9:25 am:    The Baritone is $2599.

He apparently sent the beautiful Distillate Explorer 8-string overseas. I don't like him anymore... 2400wattman Senior Member Username: 2400wattman Post Number: 420 Registered: 11-2005 Posted on Thursday, July 19, 2007 - 12:54 pm:    The S1 is mine and the price is negotiable. on the description it states there is no power supply, but there is. It's the ol' blue box and of course the bass plays and sounds great. bigbadbill Advanced Member Username: bigbadbill Post Number: 368 Registered: 10-2003 Posted on Friday, July 20, 2007 - 7:26 am:    I want one of those Divinity Oracles!!!! Coooool..... 2400wattman Senior Member Username: 2400wattman Post Number: 430 Registered: 11-2005 Posted on Tuesday, July 24, 2007 - 3:32 pm:    I got to play that 5 string Rogue yesterday. Plugged it into a Glockenlang amp(can't remember the model)e.q. set flat into a Schroeder 2x10 and 1x12. This is one smoking bass, somebody needs to get it. davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 5356 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Tuesday, July 24, 2007 - 4:26 pm:    With a 345" scale length, I'm thinking strings might be hard to find. 2400wattman Senior Member Username: 2400wattman Post Number: 432 Registered: 11-2005 Posted on Tuesday, July 24, 2007 - 10:56 pm:    ah yes Dave, but there is nothing quite like a custom now is there?
